Join us for a residential stay in the stunning setting of Haselbury Mill for a fascinating practical course, some delicious locally-sourced food and a truly home-from-home atmosphere. Our tutor, artist Shari Arnott, will be leading a seasonal exploration in watercolour.
Working on a seasonal theme and taking inspiration from the beautiful colours and patterns that nature provides, Shari, a Cornwall based artist and tutor, will bring a wealth of visual references and we can also gather inspiration in the beautiful surroundings at Haselbury Mill.
This course would suit those that like wet into wet watercolour and would like to develop their style by experimenting with some different techniques.
Relax, create and be inspired with a welcoming group of fellow watercolourists all in the most beautiful Somerset countryside setting.
The course runs from dinner on the first day (22nd October) until lunch on the last day (24th October).
